Weather Briefing
VFRBeira Airport is currently reporting visual flight rules (VFR) conditions with few clouds at 2,000 feet and 10 miles or greater visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the south (170°) at 8 knots. Runway 17/35 is favored with a 8-knot headwind and 0-knot crosswind component.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is unrestricted. No ceiling exists. Cloud layers reported: few at 2,000 ft.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 23°C (73°F) with a dewpoint of 20°C. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread suggests high humidity and potential for visibility restrictions, especially during cooling periods.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Light Drizzle. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Light Drizzle between 22:00Z and 04:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
Conditions are favorable for visual flight. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours. The forecast indicates conditions may deteriorate. Ensure you have fuel reserves and a viable alternate airport.

About Beira Airport
Overview
Beira Airport serves as a critical transportation hub in Mozambique, located in the city of Beira at an elevation of 33 ft MSL. The airport features three asphalt runways, providing flexible operational capabilities for medium-sized aircraft serving both commercial and regional aviation needs in central Mozambique.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions at Beira Airport are predominantly VFR, with 78.2% of observations showing favorable visual flight conditions. The prevailing winds from the south (180°) average 9 knots, with maximum observed winds of 25 knots. Temperature ranges from 18°C to 37°C, with an average of 26.1°C, suggesting consistently warm operating conditions throughout the year.
Notable Features
The airport's three runways (06/24, 12/30, and 17/35) offer multiple approach options with lengths ranging from 3,018 to 7,874 feet. All runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, minimizing crosswind challenges for pilots. The airport's low elevation of 33 ft MSL indicates a flat terrain characteristic of coastal regions.
Approach Considerations
Pilots can expect excellent wind conditions across all runways, with average crosswinds between 4.1 and 7.4 knots. September through November represent the best VFR months for operations. The consistent wind patterns and extensive runway options provide significant operational flexibility for arriving and departing aircraft.
